    Its not wise to try to get too much in a last minute budget deal especially when most people are blaming Trump and Republicans. Just trade something little for something else little. If you want more things then I suggest an immigration bill but democrats will have more demands that will have to be included.

    **Was boss tweed a democrat?**

    William Magear Tweed (April 3, 1823 – April 12, 1878) – widely known as "Boss" Tweed –
    was an American politician, the Democratic Party political machine that played a major role
    in the politics of 19th century New York City and State.

    At the height of his influence, Tweed was the third-largest landowner in New York City,
    a director of the Erie Railroad, a director of the Tenth National Bank,
    a director of the New-York Printing Company, proprietor of the Metropolitan Hotel,
    [2] a significant stockholder in iron mines and gas companies, a board member of the Harlem Gas Light Company,
    a board member of the Third Avenue Railway Company, a board member of the Brooklyn Bridge Company,
    and the president of the Guardian Savings Bank.[3]

    Tweed was elected to the United States House of Representatives in 1852 and the
    New York County Board of Supervisors in 1858, the year he became the head of the Tammany Hall political machine.
    He was also elected to the New York State Senate in 1867, but Tweed's greatest influence
    ame from being an appointed member of a number of boards and commissions, his control
    ver political patronage in New York City through Tammany, and his ability to ensure the loyalty
    of voters through jobs he could create and dispense on city-related projects.
    Tweed was convicted for stealing an amount estimated by an aldermen's committee in 1877
    at between $25 million and $45 million from New York City taxpayers through political corruption,
    although later estimates ranged as high as $200 million.[4] Unable to make bail, he escaped from jail once,
    but was returned to custody. He died in the Ludlow Street Jail.

    But you were okay when Obama did it right, you hypocritical lying partisan dumb fuck.

    Nancy and Shameless Schumer can pound sand. How's that?

    Barack Obama in 2006 "We cannot allow people to pour into the U.S undocumented and unchecked"
    "When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."

    I am so sorry to say this..."The Democrat Administration (in 13 years ?) built this wall":




    Am I being insensitive or short-sighted imo?
    Else, I am to consider it as a monument for the living (victors?) to live with?
    Depends on what you mean by 'Wall'?
    "The Democrat Administration (in 13 years ?) DID NOT built this wall"???

    I disagree. Furthermore, I want the practice of asylum seekers 'country shopping and hopping' to be banned, too.

    In fact, the UN recognizes the rule of first asylum, Bigdog.

    That means that Central Americans offered asylum by Mexico aren't eligible for asylum in the USA.

    Yes, international law requires them to apply in the first asylum country they reach.
